Birthday Parties

Birthday Party Information

Birthday parties are held at the Rakow Center or Randall Oaks Recreation Center. All parties include room rental, an age-appropriate party, planning specific to your child, a Party Host for one hour, equipment rental or material cost, and lots of fun!

What you should know about our parties

• Parties are two hours. Each party includes one hour of activity time and one hour of facility rental time. In addition, each rental will be given a half-hour for set-up. Therefore, the total rental time will be two and a half hours.
• A Park District Party Host will begin every party with the chosen activity for the first hour (unless otherwise requested). You, the party chaperones, will be responsible for the additional time in our party room.
• We require a $50 deposit at the time of reservation. If the room is left in the same condition as when you arrived, the deposit will be refunded and given to you within 30 days of the completion of the birthday party.
• The party fee should be paid in full two weeks before the rental date.
• Each party fee includes a maximum of 14 children. There will be a $12 fee for each additional child for the craft or paint party; a $7 fee for each additional child will be charged for all other parties.
• The renter is responsible for providing anything additional for the party, including but not limited to invitations, any food that you would like, cake, plates, utensils, napkins, and any decorations.
• In the event of party cancellation, refunds will only be issued if a refund form is completed and turned in to the appropriate Recreation Center two weeks prior to the day of the party.

When you decide to book a party

You will first contact Stacey to set a date. After a date is agreed upon, a Birthday Party Reservation Form will be sent for you to be filled out to complete your booking. The form, along with a minimum payment of $50 to cover the deposit for the party, should be mailed, faxed, or brought to either the Rakow Center or Randall Oaks Recreation Center to secure your party. The birthday party fee must be paid in full at least two weeks before your rental date.
